The Real question is where the fuck were your parents -_-...

I still play GTA 3 and Vice City. It's fun to play in the sandbox w/o having to beat the game.

Crackdown brings back some of that charm, plus it's like playing GTA with a superhero....

I think this could be the template for a Thunderbolts/Avengers game, where as a villain team, you have a choice of whether to listen to your gov't sponsor(as Thunderbolts) or turn to crime and have the entire hero community come down on you.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

I don't know what Merricks has been smoking but GTA is great.

And is it just me or are all Sandbox games "GTA clones"? Pretty damn stupid. When you can pick up a car and throw it at some baddies then jump 100ft away all without taking any damage in GTA let me know.

Anyways, Crackdown is great fun. Only downside is it's short. However the co-op will keep me playing it for quite a while.

I don't know what you've been smoking, but GTA isn't great. I literally turn away from any GTA games or wannabes, and at this point if I were given a GTA game I'd just go on eBay and sell it or hand it out to a friend that wanted it. If I play another 1 I'll probably have trouble sleeping at night knowing the atrocity I've comitted.

Don't get me wrong, there are some concepts in the game that are great, but the majority of the game is just crap.

Yes, that's it. The game is far too violent for me. Not any of the reasons I mentioned already. I seriously don't know how anyone can enjoy that much senseless violence. If I'm subjected to the images of all those poor people dying again, then I might cry.

GTA was fun, funny, open, creative, and had good characters, good environments, different environments starting with GTA:SA (I LOVED the countryside!), nice city layouts, a good choice of vehicles, a good police chase system, and nice controls. Stories kicked ass as well, though I wish that in the end of GTA:SA, you did something better, like started a gang empire like Woozy and others did.

Cheetor, You forgot the best thing about all GTA 3 + games. The Music O_O. I Loved all the music from GTA 3 and Vice City. it really sets the time-line and setting. Although i didnt think the music from SA was so hot.

I'll give you the following:

open, good environments, different enviornments, city layouts, and choice of vehicles.

Outside of that, no.

I'm pretty sure I can guess how it'll end, I'll put my prediction in a sealed envelope...

Who else had a blast climbing the agency tower? I did it with only a 2-star agility rating, so it was pretty damn tough. Damn satisfying when I got to the top, though.

I'M KING OF THE WORLD!

YAAAAAA!!!!!

Verence someone told me a funny story about that. One of those "pwned" moments.

He and a friend were climbing it. The dude jumps of the top and lands in the water, and he then tells his friend to jump off and land in the water with him, and so his friend jumps off.

All the dude sees is a little dot zip off the top of the agency tower and head for him, but then it started going off course! His friend landed on a rock like right next to the water. PWNED!

So Verence, what's your gamertag? Mine's Sparda2

Anyway, it's "Ronin Wolfwood".
